Permanent magnet generator

AVR12 – PERMANENT MAGNET GENERATOR

The permanent magnet generator (PMG)option upgrades the excitation system of the generator from the standard self-excited system to a separately-excited system. The PMGcouples to the non-drive end of the generator and provides an independent source of excitation power that ensures initial voltage build-up. The PMGimproves the voltage response of the generator during transient load application, such as motor starting, and provides a sustained short-circuit current for the operation of protective devices. Isolation of the excitation power ensures that regulation is not affected by non-linear distorting loads.
